It can be beaten for awhile, but once you've had it already, and had the treatments that irradiate you and destroy your immune system, the odds of it coming back with a vengeance are massively increased. Hope is one thing but false hope is rampant, people just need to focus on accepting death and enjoying the time they have left.

My dad had no symptoms he worried about except unexplained weight loss. I rolled my eyes and said, “Dad! That should’ve been your first clue!” For our family, weight control is a constant issue. Dad had surgery; it had spread to his liver and it was his wish not to have chemotherapy or radiation treatments. He lived ten more months, we got hospice (absolutely angels all), and good pain control. Dad died peacefully with family at bedside. God bless you and the best of health to you always!

The latter stages were stomach aches , constipation.I remember attending A& E it was so bad ….I was given antibiotics and it was suggested I may having legionaries disease . During these times I was screened twice for bowel cancer , both came back asking for another sample , both 2nd test were clear …..I had it all along ! . Three years after an operation were a third of my bowel was removed and some chemo …I’m feeling much better , still being scanned , was a time were Scan picked up something in my lungs , they thought it had spread …turns out I picked up a serious lung condition that requires 2yrs antibiotics treatment ….don’t know if I should celebrate or cry lol . As I said , good to see you looking so healthy and well , I wish , your babies and your families all the best …you are amazing Xx Sorry for the poor grammar …chemo Brian lol Xx

I to was diagnosed with colorectal cancer on the 2st of February of this year and I am still awaiting a surgery date. I thank God that his hands has been holding me up and except for the discomfort of not being able to relieve myself as per normal, i cannot say thar I have been experiencing any excruciating pain as i did in late June to November of 2021. I truly believe that it was milk that saved my life because it was only when i consumed milk that i was reeling with the worse kind of labour pain. And trust me, i know what labour pain is since i have had 8 children. I will tell all those who read our stories to please become firmilar with your body and listen to it when it becomes rebellious if you eat something it does not like. My only question now Is, what foods or drinks should i be eating and drinking before surgery to keep my strength and the same question goes for chemo. Thank you again for your bravery and honesty. God go with you and all those of you who are fighting the good fight. Peace and love my friends. 💞💞

Will they tell us its cancer from the ER I went to the 8th floor and was there for almost 3 weeks went home and started chemo in September for 6 months then they told me I had to do other 6 months after chemo I started radiation. And the whole time from day 1 on 8/16/19 till the day I was done with chemo and radiation treatments I not once cry my husband said your not nervous I looked at him and no cause God's got in his hands.

I developed rosacea, and re-occurring shingles, external shingles and internal shingles (you can have them in your abdomen) I still have both of those issues 12 years later. I also still have discomfort and pain and tissue shrinking because it’s becoming scar tissue due to radiation. YES! Push until you get answers and report ALL your symptoms as they can be related.

I too developed major health problems after extensive treatment for cervical cancer. I now have a permanent ileostomy and am in stage 4 kidney failure due to a reaction to the radiation therapies I've received. It has affected my bones and now I have osteoporosis which has required a hip replacement which unfortunately has virtually crumbled and my hip has dislocated into my pelvis and I'm in a wheelchair awaiting another surgery and because of complications will be around 10 hours duration. I am cancer free ( so far) and it has been 19 years and in that time I average 1 hospital visit per month. Obviously I have been one of the 2℅ who react to treatment but I would encourage anyone about to start treatment to ask about all possible side effects, I think Drs are inclined to mention them but don't go into specifics I would certainly have questioned part of my radiation therapy.

This is one of the biggest problems with cancer. Carcinomas, or cancers derived from epithelial tissues, make up 90% of human cancers and usually take 10-30 years to form. For most of that time, they will be almost entirely asymptomatic, and when they do cause symptoms, there is an extremely long list of other potential causes that are vastly more likely. For example, stomach pain and indigestion are a symptom of stomach cancer, and there are about a million other causes which are much more likely, especially in someone young. Cancers can also produce a baffling and endless array of symptoms that vary from person to person, which explains the meme about how whenever you type just about any symptom into webMD, cancer often arises as a potential diagnosis.

I remember forcing doctors to do screenings and an endoscopy on my mom after being in hospital for pain over and over again. How come no doctor ever thought about it? Am not even a doctor I just do my research online and boom it crossed my mind we needed to do something. Finally results came in and she had a bad wound in her stomach which could have been cancerous if it wasn't diagnosed and treated on time.. sometimes doctors assume symptoms way too much, they never take things seriously unless they see you in death bed.

YOU must fill this roll. So many people are intimidated when it comes to questioning the judgment and decision-making of their “God” physicians. They shouldn’t be. You continued to experience persistent, worsening GI symptoms which your PCP clearly didn’t take seriously- prescribing you one H2 Blocker after another whilst having done little to no laboratory, radiological, or physical testing to determine the source of the problem. As if prescribing you a laundry list of antacids will fulfill the standard of care. It won’t and it doesn’t. The patient always knows his/her body and symptoms best. When a doctor fails you despite worsening symptoms, time to find another physician immediately. Your life depends on it. I’m so very sorry for what you’ve endured, but at least you now have answers. Never be hesitant or recalcitrant to speak-up on your own behalf. It’s your right. When something doesn’t sound or feel right, it probably isn’t. Best wishes.

I have a nephew he had Crohn's extremely bad he went to Cleveland Ohio. They hooked him up to a bag for 6 months and then they take in the bag off and put him back together. He is doing okay now but you should check out Cleveland Ohio.

I have had stomach issues for a bit but it’s due to my anxiety that I was diagnosed with. When I get anxious it messes with my stomach. I am ok now !!! I decided to change my diet… And exercise more to help my anxiety..

This is sad. This is such a big problem in today’s medical field. They argue with you and think they know exactly how you feel. The medical industry is a joke nowadays. Always advocate for yourself and argue with the doctors if you have to. Half of them are there for a check.

I was diagnosed in 2017 with stage 4 metastitic colon cancer now in my lungs and received over 50 chemo treatments. Please continue to post we cancer patients need to know about the different lifestyle stages of cancer. I frequently ask the Docs if i can travel and they do not have an answer.

I had bad pain twice before once last year and then in January this year turned out to be kidney stones I didn’t know until I passed them and you heard them hit the water just lie throwing a stone in the water and the pain had eased by this point I was scared by the pain because I was hunched over for hours crying and I said I would definitely go through labour then have kidney stones now I’m going through menopause but I’m always aware of my body so anything out if the ordinary I would get checked at the minute I pee a lot and I have a heavy feeling I was same last month and had sore boobs and moody and then I had a period for 3 hours and the relief my body got harmonallie was immense I had lots of energy and I’m currently feeling the same this month again so maybe I will have a small period again as I feel my harmones have level out right now because the bad hits flushes have went away last month and this month to especially as it’s my first period in over a year I’m really bloated now to but I’m not bloated in the mornings so it must be harmonal I know I’ve wrote a lot but someone on here might read it going through what I am and may not realise and know what it is we can help each other 🙏

I hope your doing well. I guess some people can beat it and some can't. I just had a relative in her early 40's that passed away. She was diagnosed with Stage 4 colon cancer than had spread to her liver. There was surgery on her colon, and Chemo that had to be adjusted to a very aggressive level of Chemo. None of the Chemo treatments worked The cancer then spread to her lungs. When it was decided there was no hope treatment ended hospice came and she passed a week later. It was 18 months from diagnosis to her passing. I really think the Medical world needs to start recommending that younger people get colonoscopy's, because far to many young people are getting Colon Cancer now days. I'm not sure but I wouldn't be surprised if insurance company's probably only pay for it after a certain age.

My son was diagnosed with appendix cancer 3 years ago at age 40. The appendix is part of your colon. And yes it can be malignant. If after a scan you are told you have an appendix stone INSIST it be removed ASAP. He is doing well so far after a right hemicolectomy and 2 chemotherapies.

Odybeatscancer - thank you so much for sharing. You are so inspiring. Did you have to have surgery? Chemo? I hope you will share more about your recovery. My insurance refused to pay for my 2nd colonoscopy years later but I went ahead and paid out of my pocket because i felt my life was worth it. I have had polyps and people say they are no big deal which sometimes they are not. But from everything I am reading from the comments, sounds like that can turn into cancer so I'm glad I got the colonoscopy.
